Yes the malleability is so bad this month that I basically took a break from betting on Binary options because it causes alot of losers.
Too bad you can't have an account on SecondsTrade so you don't have to send BTC transactions for each bet.
i think that you misunderstand about malleability transaction on our site.
the malleability transaction is not a problem on our site , because payout of our site have been paid after one confirmation.
in this case of the malleability transaction, one of both will be real transaction and the other will be fake transaction.
first, as soon as both transaction are deposited to the our wallet, the betting will be started and the result will also be shown there.
but fake transaction does not mean win or lose, because the rake transaction will not be confirmed.
only real transaction will be become mean.
thank you.
I understand it is not caused by your site nor do I claim it is.
How your site works is pretty clear and straightforward.
It just sucks that the only variable we as players can have influence on "the timing" is taken away by this outside issue.... the malleability.
If like in my example I want to bet on a 5 seconds game I want it logically to start when I broadcast the tx.
It works both ways I know that a "lost" bet can be a "winner" due to malleability too. The unconfirmed tx is the fake one and the confirmed one is the real one. But as a player/better of timing games you will always see your intended tx on the intended time as the real one.
It is not something you or I can change but that extra variable makes it hard to place bets based on timing that's all. And when you place a bet and you see a great win (x3.53 in this case) and you wait for half an hour on confirmation only to discover after that the tx changed it just sucks.
I'll be back when the malleability doesn't change so many transactions
